HEXAGON WOOD STOVE

Just used it once in the USA before long term use in cold and windy Patagonia.
Had to custom make a round platform to safely
place my only slightly bigger pot on the stove.
Took about 20 minutes to get half a liter boiling.
I'll update once back from the far south!

I recently purchased the titanium model of the Vargo Hexagon Wood Stove, and I'm thoroughly impressed. This ingenious piece of gear has quickly become an essential part of my outdoor cooking kit.

**Unbeatable Portability**

What I love most about this stove is how incredibly light it is. The titanium construction makes it durable without weighing down my pack. Even better, it packs flat, which is a game-changer for someone like me who values space efficiency in my gear.

**Versatile Fuel Options**

I've used this stove with various fuel sources, and it's performed excellently across the board. As a wood-burning stove, it's been impressive. Once I get a small fire with coals burning, I can easily feed longer sticks horizontally through the open door. It does require frequent attention to maintain the burn, but it's surprisingly fuss-free. I just need to bump the stick in a little further or toss in a twig every few minutes.

I've also used it with both the Trangia alcohol stove for simmering and the Snow Peak titanium alcohol stove when I want to minimize weight. Both work exceptionally well with the Vargo Hexagon.

**Effective Wind Protection**

One of the things that's really stood out to me is how well it performs in windy conditions. Even in medium wind, I didn't need an additional wind block. The hexagonal design serves as an effective wind shield on its own.

**Perfect Minimalist Solution**

For me, this stove is the perfect minimal combination of a stove, pot stand, and wind block. As someone who appreciates streamlined gear, I couldn't ask for a better all-in-one solution for my outdoor cooking needs.

In conclusion, I highly recommend the Vargo Hexagon Wood Stove, especially the titanium model. Its lightweight design, versatility, and efficient performance have made it an invaluable addition to my outdoor gear. Whether you're a backpacker, hiker, or just someone who enjoys outdoor cooking, this stove is definitely worth considering.

I like it a gave it a little run roasting marshmallows with the kids and the efficiency from wood quantity to output is great in my opinion.

This thing is so cool! Its super lightweight and it can double as a wood stove if you run out of fuel or use with the triad stove. You always want good hearty products for the backcountry and two ways to cook your food or for a source of heat is genius!

I bought the Vargo Hexagon Wood Stove and used it. Easy to assemble and store, easy to use. Boiled water faster than I expected and used less fuel then I expected. You are able to influence the fire a bit by opening and closing the door. I enjoy watching the flame when the door is open. I am very happy with my purchase.

This little 'stove' has such a small pack size and extremely good burning behavior that I always have it with me. It is so light and space-saving packed that there are no excuses not to have it with you!

It’s super cool... it just doesn’t make sense. It’s more effective to use your poop trowel to dig a little fire pit if that’s what you need. I bought it specifically to build tiny stealth fires while packing with my kid.. it’s just too inconvenient. I can’t think of a place I would actually use it. We use the vargo alcohol stove for water then just dig a hole for a campfire.

Love it!

Great design. Light and strong. Folding design allows for great packability. Will use with Converter Alcohol Stove. Great combo.

So I bought this as an option to not carry fuel canisters. So I just followed the example of the video on Vargo’s website, and in under ten minutes had my water boiling. I ended up biking potatoes too. This little things works great, is very compact, and you can find fuel anywhere, even in wet conditions. So it was a great buy for me.
